Jake, I hv seen him in concert for four hours...I may be fan but I can't lie and say he didn't sing be sura ..even when he was young and came to india sare gama show to perform as guest, he sang Aadat song besura..he has improved in coke studio episode 8 ..vastly improved, but believe me, it has taken him two years of not getting work in bollywood which has made him introspect and up his game.

Well, I can't argue with that. It's your opinion.

All I know is enjoy his songs and style. I could never define his besuraness ... I think, the uniqueness of his voice overshadows. In the end, what sounds good to one's ears.

His concerts are still sold out ... He is still successful. People still get excited for his songs (that's an other thing if it turns out to be good or not). Question is why wouldn't they offer him work? A lot of indian musicians had one thing or an other against him anyway from the start ...

Nothing to do with nationality. Most of the artists are shallow.He was very arrogant when he was at his peak in btown. Rubbed many of the guys the wrong way hurting their ego's in the process. So they chose not to work with him like they did before.

Now coming to being successful now or not he might be successful but I was talking in context of his brown career and supposed replacements he himself was talking about.

Love him or hate him but u cant deny the fact tht Atif has a unique voice. He's not a trained singer and can go off key at times, yet he always nails those high notes n can pull the audience even today..e.g his qawali in Coke studio.❤️

The old order changeth giving place to new...Atif is finding it hard to accept that his days are over, that Arijit and Ankit have taken his place.

Just like Abhijeet used to rail and rant abt Atif getting to sing all those BW songs, now Atif is feeling insecure and badmouthing the more talented and successful Arijit Singh.

I highly disagree. Maybe you should go read comments under that coke studio video.

Maybe his days are over in India and indian audience is finding hard to accept him now and want their singers to take his place.

This is very unfair coming from you. Don't make this about nationality. Which most of you are doing right now ... unconsciously or consciously ... it's not even about being besura.

Where did I mention nationality? 😕

FYI, I used to love Atif's songs a lot when he was on top of his form...but now his days are over in BW. Lately hes only given one or 2 hits like Jeena Jeena (Badlapur).

This is inevitable in life, old singers fade out, new ones take their place. How many songs do Shaan and Sonu sing nowadays as compared to Arijit?

Arijit is the flavor of the season now...most of his songs are superhits. He will fade with time too when people find a new voice and new talent.

Sonu fought a battle for all the singers of indian industry on royallty issue i was preety active those days in 2013 when T-Series and other music companies were dubbing all Sonu Nigam songs with others which gone to arijit and mohit chahun thats how Salman Khan got to sing Hangover which was actually did by Sonu and Shreya ... Its just with amir khan Peekay Sonu got his song released after the problem sorted out with T-Series...That ban on Sonu benefited the new lot of singers

You did not. I did, because your comment indicated.

Whoever faded out and will in the future, we are not talking about em. I don't think Atif has. What's ya hurry? That's why I was suggesting you to read the comments under the video ... so you can see he is still relevant. I don't know what's your definition of fading out.

If Arjit's songs are superhit ... good for him. lol Even today when Atif song comes out or find out he is singing for such or such movie ... people still get excited. That's not the definition of fading out.
